    Switched from Dish to DirecTV - First Impressions

    Maybe it's just whatever you're used too...I was with Dish for well over a dozen years.

    Switched from Dish to DirecTV - First Impressions

    I switched 5 days ago due to the St. Louis RSN issue regarding Blues games. A few things I've noticed: My HDMI port now works! I miss my 'All Subs' favorites list. They have something called 'Channels I Get', but it doesn't work. In fact it makes things worse; instead of removing those...

    Stars game blacked out on my local FSN SW

    I wouldn't be so sure, last Thursday the game was on the guide too until the last minute, and the guide was changed. I'm keeping my fingers crossed though. If it's not resolved by tomorrow night, I'm not holding out any hope, I'll be placing a call to DirecTV Monday. Sure, I'll lose 5 games...

    Fox Sports Midwest and the St. Louis Blues

    I was thinking the same thing, are we entering a phase of paying for channels and not really knowing if they're ever going to show what they're scheduled to show??

    Fox Sports Midwest and the St. Louis Blues

    I see they have the Blues game in the guide for Friday evening. Is that just in case they reach a settlement, or will they yank it off the air shortly after faceoff like they did last time? Or has there by chance been some settlement reached?

    Fox Sports Midwest and the St. Louis Blues

    I've already emailed them, talked to them via chat, and called them. I don't want to switch to DirecTV, as I think their prices are slightly higher, and they don't have VS, but I'll give up those 5 Blues games on VS if I can watch 35 more on FOXMW. I might give them until the next game...

    Fox Sports Midwest and the St. Louis Blues

    Anyone watching the game? Did you hear that announcement? They said Fox Sports Midwest in the St. Louis region has chosen to not show dozens of the games this year. I was pumped to see 74 games on FSNMW, how I'm p*ssed. I've been with Dish maybe 15 years, but I'll switch next week if...

    622 going out?

    Started messing around with DishOnline a few days ago, screen goes blank and freezes up, had to reboot. Same thing happened when I was doing a search for sports->baseball (I admitedly started hitting a bunch of wrong buttons at the same time though, maybe I confused it). Guess I better start...

    VIP-622 freezing & locking up.. Dish says its "known issue"?

    Overheating possibly? What's the temp readings?

    HDTV question

    Yes, everything I've ever read about Sharpness is, it actually adds things to the picture that aren't actually there, rather than sort of a focus to make it sharper, which did help many years ago with the quality of electronics and the signals provided, but is completely unnecessary today...

    Dish Remote Access and 622HZ

    I have the regular 622 hooked up to the internet through Homeplug, and I've got the remote scheduling to work. It's not perfect, seems I sometimes have to reset the connection from my receiver or modem (which could be a modem or homeplug issue). But most the time it's fine.

    More info on NFL RedZone on Dish

    Well, I know that...I was hoping for something with a faster rundown of current scores. Generally right before the one I'm looking for comes up, they cut to a commercial! :D

    More info on NFL RedZone on Dish

    Screenshots? What do they do if 2 different games are in the redzone? Do they have a current list of scores ongoing?

    More info on NFL RedZone on Dish

    Do you get anymore live NHL or NBA games with the multisport package, or are they always blacked out? I had it for a very short time a long time ago, and the few times I tried to put on a hockey game, it was blacked out. Didn't know if this was always the case or not.

    Just got the $10/month Platinum charge removed...

    I got my charge removed via a chat with a CSR. At least that's what they told me, I guess I'll find out when the bill comes.

    Dish vs Uverse

    I think Uverse packages include DSL internet, which is probably is $20-$25 of that.

    Dish Statement on Tivo PTO Action

    Not in America. Just about every other civilized country does this to cut down on frivilous lawsuits. But apparently we like to keep our lawyers busy here!

    AT&T and Dish Network

    AT&T did have a relationship with Dish for years in all but the former BellSouth areas, in which it had a relationship with DirecTV. It's since gone with only one carrier, DirecTV, for new subscribers. Not sure how it's handling the old subscribers to Dish, but I'm guessing they're...

    More DRM Coming?

    It's been a while since I called and complained, but at that time they only offered a replacement 622. If this hits the premium channels, maybe I'll try again. But at that time if no 722 is offered, then I'm done with Dish.

    More DRM Coming?

    The day they roll this out to the premium channels is the day I'll switch to DirecTV, being that Dish's HDMI port is so flimsy. Mine doesn't work now and I hesistate to get another 622, which is all they offered me. I'm not going to keep replacing receivers.

    Vip211 HD sound not as loud as SD

    As mentioned, the Line or RF option will alter this, but in an effort to keep the volume consistent, you may be missing out on some of the sound effects as intended by movies and so forth.
